The guy at the register asked if we had just eaten Korean food, because we smelled so good. We laughed, and mentioned we had just come from Del Seoul. The clerk then went on about how it was his favorite place to eat in Lincoln Park, and what his favorite dishes were. And honestly? Samesies, my guy. You know you've found a gem of a restaurant when strangers want to geek out with you about how awesome it is. Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4 Price per person: $10–20

The tofu stew was both beautiful and delicious! I also appreciated the clear instructions for cleanup. We'll definitely return here whenever we're back in Chicago.

Right off the bat there was signage in the store asking guests to wear masks when interacting with employees and it said ine-in parties were limited to 4 people. As a group of 5, we asked if we would be able to dine-in and they happily moved some tables for us since they weren't too busy. I ordered the Sesame-Chilli shrimp taco and BBQ chicken taco. Our group shared an order of the kitchen fries. The shrimp taco was definitely my favorite: the sauce and seasonings made for a delicious, flavorful expirience. The BBQ chicken taco was also good, but it didn't have as good of a flavor. I'd reccomend it as a safer option for the picky eater or unsure. Both tacos were very full of ingredients and hard to eat by hand, so I reccomend grabbing a utencil or two. The fries were amazing and a great size for sharing. I never liked kimchi, but this kimchi had more of a sweeter vinaigrette taste I enjoyed. One friend got the bento box. Fair warning: the bento box is served on a large three-platter tray that is heated in the center and is a very generous amount of food. Would definitely go again!
